Description:

 
Policymakers in Latin America increasingly are turning to policies that have high economic rates of return and a favorable impact on income distribution. By providing financial services to small businesses and poor households -which normally lack such services- credit unions help secure growth with equity. The challenges faced by Latin America's credit unions today are likely to force them to further modernize and consolidate, fine tune their inherent advantages, improve mechanisms for prudential regulation, and find ways to increase their share of low and middle-income markets. Safe Money presents the new thinking on how credit unions can compete effectively in modern financial markets while still retaining their social mission.
 
Los responsables de la economía de América Latina están recurriendo a políticas que consiguen no sólo altas tasas de rendimiento económico sino también un impacto favorable en la distribución del ingreso. Al proporcionar servicios financieros a las pequeñas empresas y a las familias de bajos ingresos, que normalmente carecen de esos servicios, las cooperativas de ahorro crédito aseguran el crecimiento con equidad. Los desafíos que enfrentan hoy las cooperativas de ahorro y crédito en América Latina probablemente las obligarán a modernizarse y consolidarse aún más, a afinar sus ventajas intrínsecas, a mejorar los mecanismos de regulación prudencial y a ampliar su participación en los mercados de ingresos bajos y medianos. Dinero seguro presenta nuevas ideas para que las cooperativas de ahorro y crédito puedan competir eficazmente en los mercados financieros modernos sin perder su misión social.
